Ms Dynamite's showcase will be in support of CM the youth and community music organisation based in Tower Hamlets. CM runs the Music Space Stage and will be showcasing local acts taught through its music projects. The Music Space stage at The Underage Festival is the finale to a year long course called Music Space.

The Music Space programme offers young bands and musicians expert tuition from industry professionals in songwriting, rehearsing, performing and recordings as well as rehearsal space to practice and improve their skills. The Music Space programme is free and provides invaluable education and experience to young people.

Ms Dynamite said, "I am really excited to be performing on the Music Space stage at Underage Festival and its great to be able to support CM and the fantastic work they do with young musicians across London."

CM's Managing Director Maricia Klincke said, "The Music Space Stage at Underage Festival is a unique and special place for young people to perform. The stage offers a professional environment for young people to gain experience while having fun creating new music. To be able to perform alongside such a seasoned professional, as Ms Dynamite is an excellent opportunity for the young musicians involved, and we are really proud to be able to welcome Ms Dynamite to our stage this year."
